NBL Big Men

According to Ozhoops Mueller from the Hawks has been cut due to injury, the leagues big man stocks would be something like this;

Sixers, Rees & Cooper
Perth, Burston
Tigers, Bradtke, Stiff (Mottram?)
Cairns, Burgess, Rampton
Breakers, Blake & Pepp
Pirates, Melmeth, Hinder & Cullen
Pigs, Dwight
Kings, Wheels
Crocs ?
Hawks, Rice (Maybe Dench?)
Bullets, Brannen

You would have to say Melbourne & Hunter are best equipped in the middle, have the crocs imports got any size?

I think Mottram should be nearing fitness. Heard something about him missing the pre-season though.

Kings also have Knight.

Crocs have Calvary, and then two young guys in Cameron Tragardh and Greg Vanderjagt.

Bullets are trialling Miles Pearce and another guy.

Pigs dumped Neumann and I've heard they are looking at an SEABL guy (Jamie Holmes I think).

I'd say that the Tigers will be strongest in the middle, then Pirates, and after that it thins out a bit.

Isaac, are you sure the pigs aren't looking at John Holmes for some size in the middle?

Har har.

Back on topic...

Goodwin hasn't signed anywhere after apparent frustration re offers from Townsville, so he could be an option for some teams.

I think that Perth are taking big risks this season - if Burston goes down, they have Ronaldson in the middle and then you're looking at Rush or Majstrovich as the next tallest. The season hasn't even started and Burston and Grace are resting injury-prone body parts.

No.

This guy is a guard (I think) from Newman University. I emailed him to explain that our ABA can't afford imports, our NBL team is happy with the imports they have, but pointed him towards the Taipans, Breakers and Wildcats. Also suggested that he look at playing in the SEABL or NZ NBL to get started.

I figure that most of the incoming imports are scouted in the US though.

The NBL hasnt got enough Big Men....IF some NBL teams were to go and play in the NBA their Big Men would get absolutely hammered. That and more high flying dunkers are what the NBL needs, but other than that keep the imports coming
